Description Yann Rouillard 2003-08-09 21:57:16 UTC 
When you want to drag'n drop a song from the library to a playlist, you
must first click to select the song and the reclick to be able to drag'n
dorp it.
It would be better if we can just select and drag'n drop with one click.

This patch solves the previously mentionned bug.
Comment 2 Yann Rouillard 2003-08-09 22:06:08 UTC 
The bug is in fact located in the libegg file: eggtreemultidnd.c
To enable multi selection dnd support, this file register a signal
handler for the button press event on the GtkTreeView. When you click
to select a song, the signal handler is called before the GtkTreeview
handler, so the song is not yet selected so you can't drag and drop.
The previous patch manually call the GtkTreeView default handler
before checking for drag and drop (as seen in nautilus code in
fm-list-view.c).

Ok, could you also be sure that this patch applies to the libegg version?

Thanks for the patch, it's applied now!
Comment 4 Yann Rouillard 2003-08-10 09:36:06 UTC 
Sure, I subsequently opened the same bug for libegg.
